The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong CAD drafting fundamentals, knowledge of engineering standards, and a willingness to expand their technical capabilities.
Duties and Responsibilities:- Create, modify, and maintain detailed part and assembly models and engineering drawings using PTC Creo Parametric 12.
- Support fluid system design activities, including piping routes, tubing assemblies, and component layouts using Creo Piping tools.
- Contribute to electrical system design, including enclosure assemblies, cable tray routing, and panel layouts.
- Prepare design layouts, revise existing models and drawings, and identify potential design discrepancies.
- Review engineering drawings and technical documentation for compliance with established specifications, drafting standards, and standard drawing notes.
- Apply applicable company, program, and industry standards, including ASME Y14.100, Y14.5, and Y14.41.
- Support product structure management, drawing revisions, configuration control, and engineering change notice workflows.
- Participate in drawing checks, technical reviews, and release activities under senior designer oversight.
- Explore and utilize AI-assisted design tools and automation capabilities to improve drafting efficiency, productivity, and drawing quality.
- Apply engineering and manufacturing best practices to support design solutions that balance cost, schedule, quality, and performance.
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to support project milestones and technical deliverables.
Required Qualifications:- Associate degree in Computer-Aided Drafting, Mechanical Engineering Technology, Drafting and Design Technology, or a related technical discipline; or equivalent technical certification.
- Demonstrated hands-on experience using PTC Creo Parametric (any version) or Pro/ENGINEER for 3D parametric modeling and engineering drawing development.
- Foundational knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).
- Understanding of mechanical design principles and experience developing detailed part and assembly models.
- Knowledge of drafting and design practices applicable to aerospace, automotive, marine, industrial, or similar engineering applications.
- Familiarity with applicable ASME Y14-series engineering drawing and drafting standards.
- Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, technical specifications, procedures, and work instructions.
- Strong attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to produce accurate technical documentation.
- Effective written and verbal communication skills with the ability to collaborate with engineers, designers, and project personnel.
- Demonstrated willingness to learn new design software, engineering tools, and technical processes.
- Ability to establish and maintain positive, professional working relationships in a collaborative team environment.
Preferred Qualifications:- 1-3 years of relevant experience in CAD drafting, mechanical design, or engineering design support.
- Experience using PTC Creo Parametric 12.
- Exposure to Model-Based Definition (MBD), 3D annotations, and Product Manufacturing Information (PMI).
- Familiarity with large assembly modeling and management techniques within parametric CAD environments.
- Exposure to piping, tubing, fluid system components, or mechanical system integration.
- Understanding of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) principles.
- Hands-on experience or demonstrated interest in fabrication, machining, prototyping, or product development.
- Experience supporting multidisciplinary engineering projects involving mechanical, structural, fluid, or electrical systems.
